Sun gloves from Eclipse? A packet of skittles would have nothing on the rainbow of colours which designers have been showcasing on leather in recent months. “There’s no mistaking that leather – including vegan or faux – is the one material everyone’s excited to work with next season,” wrote Marina Liao in Marie Claire. “The material was spotted on Spring 2020 runways from New York to Paris in just about every form – from colourful jackets at Coach 1941 and Bottega Veneta to skirts and pants at Marni and Alexander McQueen.” Leather designs were once reserved for autumn and winter, but it seems leather is set to make its mark in Spring this year.
Fashion’s love affair with trench coats – that practical, dependable, goes-with-everything outerwear option – shows no signs of abating. This season it comes in fresh colourways (silver at JW Anderson, spearmint at Balenciaga), in snappy ’70s cuts with cheeky corsages (see Louis Vuitton) and in glossy finishes (Junya Watanabe). At Fendi, it even comes dressed for dinner.
Yes, we know—it’s 30-something degrees outside right now, it’s impossible to step out of your apartment without multiple layers of Heattech on (at least in NYC), and we’re barely a third of the way through winter, so who has time to think about spring style? With fashion month kicking off in a little over two weeks and the spring collections set to start trickling into stores come February, there’s actually no time like the present to get informed on what the must-have S/S 2020 trends are going to be. Considering the fact that there are hundreds of runway shows each and every season, we certainly don’t expect you to go digging through them all to unearth the trends that will rise to the top. That’s what we’re here for.

Let’s talk some spring 2020 trends in the fashion world. Birds of a Feather: When it comes to eveningwear, as much as the world is wont to convince you, sometimes a little black dress just won’t do. Enter: boldly feathered frocks and tops from Burberry, Valentino, Attico, and more. While almost certainly light as air, these ensembles pack a heavy sartorial punch. If you don’t have a black-tie event to tend to, take note from Attico and give the look a bit of edge by styling a glam feathered top with a cool pair of trousers or jeans. Ideal for your next night—offset the glam feathers with a pair of jeans or a printed pair of pants.
Launching new items happens organically for us, when we come up with great designs. Consumers request items. Those requests are important to us. We spend weeks and months creating just the right piece. The space-age fabric technology isn’t just for temperature. The 37.5 particles also trap odor molecules, releasing them when washed. Polyester never smelled so good after a workout. The increased surface area of the particles also increases the ultraviolet protection properties of the fabric.
It began in 2002 with a design for a knuckle-to-shoulder glove designed to protect my hands and arms in sunny Boulder, Colorado. All of my friends seemed to want a pair.
